Cycle Dogs will be having a fundraiser to benefit Enchanted Forest Vegan Animal Sanctuary

Thursday Nite is Taco Nite with Cycle Dogs and on Feb 1 we are offering a free side of #vegan queso and chips with every ticket. We will be donating 15% of our sales to Enchanted Forest Vegan Animal Sanctuary. The Sanctuary has taken on quite a few rescues recently and is in need of assistance with their fundraising goals to make sure their animals are getting necessary medical treatment.

Save the date for HSUS's Humane Lobby Day in Olympia. This will be a day to engage in direct democracy on behalf of animals: learn about current legislative issues and how to advocate effectively to your elected officials.

NARN's board of directors meets monthly to discuss our campaigns and administrative issues. Guests are welcome to attend if we have enough time on our agenda.

If you wish to have an agenda item added to the NARN Board Meeting, please email info@narn.org at least a day in advance. You can also send us a message on Facebook anytime or even the day of the meeting and we'll get back to you. All NARN Board Meetings are held in Seattle.

Join activists from Seattle Farmed Animal Save for a peaceful vigil outside the Enumclaw Sales Pavilion to raise awareness about the plight of farmed animals in our communities.
They will have signs to hold. You're always welcome to bring your own signs with peaceful messages. Please bring friends, family, or come on your own!

They recommend parking across the street from the sales pavilion at the public park. If you have any questions about this event or think that you may be interested in being a volunteer or co-organizer with our group, please email us at seattlefarmedanimalsave@gmail.com

See the first Seattle public screening of "Cascade Crossroads" a 30-minute documentary film chronicling the story unfolding over and under Interstate 90 just east of Snoqualmie Pass in Washington's Cascade Mountains. Here at the intersection of an east-west transportation corridor and a north-south wildlife migration corridor, a monumental project combining conservation, collaboration, and innovation led to the construction of North Americas largest wildlife crossings project in conjunction with major infrastructure improvements for motorists.
Seward Park Audubon Center is a proud sponsor of this film.

Free, but advance tickets required

Why letter writing? Letter writing is a simple way to make change for the animals! At our letter writing events, we write for many different reasons: opposition to the creation of new animal laboratories, support for sending animals to sanctuary, promotion of vegan events and issues through letters to the media, and raising the spirits of activists and comrades who have been jailed for their pro-animal actions.

NARN provides the stationery, pens, stamps, sample letters, and ideas for what to write -- just bring yourself. You can even bring your laptop if you'd prefer to type or email your letters!
